The newest installment to the "Night at the Museum" franchise maintained the high energy and charm of the first two films, "Night at the Museum" (2006) and "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" (2009). It would be a great idea to watch the first two movies before watching the latest film so that you'll get familiarity with the characters of the film.

Museums and historical artifacts have this special place in my heart. The way this film has given another breathe of life to what some other people think as boring places are highly commendable. The first film has been very helpful to the "American Museum of Natural History" for after the movie premiered the museum visitors increased in the weeks after the film premiered.

The dreamlike fantasy world of the re-opening Planetarium is a must see. It is fascinating to see how reality has been carefully woven with graphics expertise and the result is another masterpiece on its own right. Another scene that made my heart jump was the scene with the serpent god on the Asian Gallery in the "British Museum" be sure to look forward to it.
